That's actually all normal. It passes AU validation, which is the main point. Since you don't actually explain what you think is a problem, I assume you are concerned about either or both of the "deprecated Carbon Component Manager" and "Failed to register font" messages.
The former is due to us still using a popular (amongst plugin developers) AU wrapper library called Symbiosis, which hasn't been updated for recent AU changes. I'd like to address this problem at some point by creating a new version of the library, or even a fork of it (since no one else seems to be tackling it), but I haven't yet had the time to do so. And, in any case, the point of using a wrapper library is to avoid having to delve into the innards of audio units and concentrate on getting interesting new plugins delivered to everyone. But it would be an interesting project to tackle. By the way, a while ago I did a web search for that message and it appears to affect plenty of well-known plugins, all of which work fine. I admit there is room for improvement, however. Like I said above, this is something I'd like to fix, but it hasn't yet been particularly urgent.
The font registration message is benign. It is simply due to us always registering the custom font when an instance of the plugin is opened, even if another instance of the plugin has already registered it in the same process. And we do this because I am not aware of a simple API to query whether the font has already been registered. I could just not log the error, I guess, but I'd rather know what the problem is if there is ever a real problem.
So, thanks for being diligent and letting us know, but since Sinnah passes AU validation and presumably still works in Login Pro X (and I've certainly confirmed it works in MainStage and GarageBand which are hopefully reasonable proxies for Logic) I think there is no immediate problem, unless I'm misunderstanding something.
By the way, did your spell check convert "Sinnah" to "Sinai"?
